Abstract

Considering the complex and rapid changes occurring in the healthcare sector, there is a need for emphasizing clinical practice by the best available evidence. Evidence-based nursing has been defined as an approach to making quality decisions and providing nursing care based upon personal clinical expertise in combination with the most current, relevant research available on the topic. The present research was a quasi-experimental intervention-based study which was carried out in 2012. The statistical population included all clinical nurses in Kerman, 70 of whom were randomly selected as the sample and divided into two groups of intervention and control. During the workshops, subjects in the intervention group were trained on evidence-based nursing. The required data and information were collected using the inventory of evidence-based clinical practice. Data analysis was done using t-test and ANOVA in SPSS-17. The ability of evidence-based clinical practice in the intervention group before and after training and after a one-month follow-up was compared using paired t-test. The results showed that evidence-based nursing training increases the score of nurses on clinical practice (p=0.007). The results also showed that the mean scores (47.23 +/- 4.14) were better after training. No significant difference was found in score of clinical practice between before the training and the follow-up period and also between after the training and after the follow-up. However, mean scores were higher in the follow-up period. The use of evidence-based nursing education, because of the strengthening and development of critical thinking and creativity, increases the ability of nurses in clinical practice. According to the findings of the present study, this approach is recommended to be used for training of nurses.
